Well it looks like we are all hooked on our punches if last weeks entries are anything to go by I think Fleur will have had a hard week deciding her top five from those entries!!!!!
This week it is my (Emma's) turn to set the challenge and I challenge you to create something plain and simple
not such an easy task with all the fabulous papers and embelishments at the moment.....

We are sponsored this week by one of our regular monthly sponsors

This week we are joined again by our wonderful guest designer Vicky from Stamp Addicts
I think you will agree that the DT have produced some beautiful work again this week....

Emma
There is a little blog candy on offer on my blog for this challenge...

How you wowed us with all your wonderful creations for my Colours of Autumn theme last week with so many stunning and varied pieces of artwork and you really embraced the beautiful rich colours of the season. I'm not totally sure, but I think this might be our highest week for entries, if it's not it's pretty close, but either way thank you each and every one of you for joining in.

Before I move on to the winner and Top 5, a quick reminder that there is still time to enter our sister challenge Penny Black at Allsorts where we are also looking for new DT members. So if you have not already entered what are you waiting for ? The challenge is sponsored by Penny Black themselves and there are great prizes on offer every month.

Now this weeks winner who I am thrilled to announce Random Org., selected is:

Good Morning everyone and welcome to Allsorts where it is my turn - Brenda, to host the new theme. Before I move on to the new challenge, a huge thank you to everyone who joined us for Debs New Beginnings theme last week, so many varied interpretations of the theme and it was a joy to see all your work.

Like it or not we are heading into Autumn but although that means shorter days and colder nights, it does promise some of the most beautiful colours Nature has to offer. It's one of the seasonal colours I most enjoy working with so the theme for you all this week is:

Colours of Autumn

And we are thrilled to be sponsored this week by one of our regular sponsors Stamp Supermarket who are "Run by Stampers for Stampers" and I know that's right because Julia is passionate about her stamps and knows just what us crafters are looking for. She is offering one lucky winner:

Penny Black 30-056 Robins Kingdom from the 2010 Christmas Collection

Their on line offers an absolutely fantastic range of stamps and accessories and they also have a very useful second hand section so you can treat yourself to even more crafty goodies with the added bonus of free UK P&P on orders over £39.00.

The DT have worked their magic again this week and here are their wonderful creations to offer you some inspiration. Please do click on their names to go visit their personal blogs and show your appreciation for all their hard work.

And we are pleased to welcome back Vicky our Guest Designer this month from Stamp Addicts with another of her stunning creations:

Good morning. Thanks for all the beautiful 'New Beginnings' projects you entered last week - you really are a very talented bunch of crafters and we are very lucky to have so many of you take the time to join us each week.

Good morning everyone. Welcome to another new challenge here at Allsorts as chosen by me (Debs). But first a great big THANK YOU to all that took the time to join in the fun with Helene's Garden/Park challenge last week - don't forget to check the previous post to see if you were the lucky winner or if you made TOP5.

So this week and next week will be the start of the new school year for most school children in the UK and for my son (and lots more 11 year olds) it also sees the beginning of a new milestone they have reached - moving up to 'BIG' school.

So when I saw it was my turn to pick the theme this week, I immediately knew I wanted to have

'NEW BEGINNINGS' as the theme.

We are delighted to have another Guest Designer with us this month and are thrilled to welcome Vicky from Stamp Addicts. Vicky and her sister Sarah run the family owned business and we are all familiar with their faces from their regular shows on Create and Craft and craft exhibitions around the Country. Those of us lucky enough to live in the region know what a wonderful selection of stamps and craft products can be found at their shop, but if you are unable to visit the store everything can be purchased from their on line store.

As it is the first of the month we have our regular sponsor this week

and 1 lucky winner picked using Random.org will win 10 digi images of their choice.
